The chassis can be freestanding or rack mounted.
Installing the Cable Management Bar 3.3 INSTALLING THE CABLE MANAGEMENT BAR To install the cable management bar, proceed as follows: 1. Remove the cable management bar from the shipping box. Ensure that there are four screws inside the bag with the cable management bar. 2. Refer to Figure 3-1. Line up the two holes on each side of the cable management bar with the two holes located underneath the 6C110, near the front of the chassis. 3. Using a Phillips screwdriver, securely fasten the 4 screws.
Chapter 3: 6C110 Setup 3.4 RACK MOUNTING THE 6C110 The 6C110 can be mounted in a standard 19-inch equipment rack. ! CAUTION ! If the rack is not secured to the floor, it is recommended that the chassis be installed in the bottom half of the rack. This prevents the rack from being top heavy. Read Chapter 2 in this manual before completing the following procedure. CAUTION Two people may be required to lift the chassis into place. The chassis is secured with ten screws, five on each side.
Attaching the Electrostatic Discharge Wrist Strap 3.5 ATTACHING THE ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE WRIST STRAP The Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) wrist strap must be attached before handling the power supplies, fan tray, or modules for the 6C110. In addition, observe all precautions when handling these modules to prevent damage from ESD. Place the ESD wrist strap on your wrist and plug the other end into the grounding receptacle, at the top right corner of the chassis, shown in Figure 3-3.
Chapter 3: 6C110 Setup 3.6 REMOVING THE POWER BRIDGE ADAPTER ! CAUTION This section applies to users that will equip the 6C110 chassis with 6C205-2 or 6C205-3 power supplies ONLY. If 6C210-1 or 6C210-2 power supplies will be used, DO NOT remove the power bridge adapter. This section provides instructions on removing the power bridge adapter to allow the 6C110 chassis to support the legacy 6C205-2 or 6C205-3 power supplies.
Removing the Power Bridge Adapter 3. Remove the two lower screws and the two upper screws that hold the power bridge adapter in place. Save the screws. 4. Disconnect the power bridge adapter from the lower backplane. 5. Place the power bridge adapter in a safe place in the event the power supplies are upgraded to the 6C210-1 or 6C210-2 models. 6. Using a .25-inch hex nut driver, remove the three standoffs that are attached to the lower backplane. Refer to Figure 3-5. 7.
Chapter 3: 6C110 Setup 3.7 INSTALLING THE POWER BRIDGE ADAPTER ! CAUTION This section applies to users that will equip the 6C110 chassis with 6C210-1 or 6C210-2 power supplies, and the 6C110 chassis has already had the power bridge adapter removed. If legacy 6C205-2 or 6C205-3 power supplies will be used, DO NOT install the power bridge adapter. The three standoffs and the support clip removed from the chassis in step 6 and step 8 of Section 3.6 are required to install the power bridge adapter.

Chapter 3: 6C110 Setup 3.8 POWER SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS Before installing the power supplies into the 6C110 chassis, ensure the following power supply requirements are met: Ensure the requirements outlined in this section are met. Serious injury or death may occur if these requirements are not followed. If the chassis will use legacy 6C205-2 or 6C205-3 power supplies, there may be no more than one CSM, one TSM with a CPU, and 5 TSMs without CPUs installed in the chassis.
Installing a Power Supply Module 3.9 INSTALLING A POWER SUPPLY MODULE ! CAUTION Before installing the power supplies, refer to Section 3.8 and Section 3.6 for important information on power supply requirements for the 6C110 chassis. Installing legacy 6C205-2 and 6C205-3 power supplies with 6C210-1 or 6C210-2 power supplies in the same chassis is NOT allowed. You must install at least one power supply in the 6C110 chassis.
Chapter 3: 6C110 Setup 4. Slide the power supply module into the slot labeled PS1 as follows: a. Hold the module by placing one hand on the handle located on the module front panel and using the other hand to support the body of the module. b. With the LED at the top of the power supply module, align the circuit card of the power supply module with the slotted paths on the top and bottom of the opening. ! Forcing a misaligned module into place can damage the module and/or the chassis backplane.

Chapter 3: 6C110 Setup ON/OFF DC Input Power Strip 2016_99 Figure 3-13 Power Supply DC ON/OFF Switch and DC Input Power Strip ONLY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL SHOULD PERFORM THESE INSTALLATION PROCEDURES. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK OR ENERGY HAZARDS: • CONNECT TO A RELIABLY GROUNDED 48/60 VDC SELV SOURCE. • ENSURE THE BRANCH CIRCUIT OVERCURRENT PROTECTION IS RATED AT A MINIMUM OF 25 A. • USE 10 AWG SOLID COPPER CONDUCTORS ONLY.
Powering Up a 6C110 with DC Power Supplies Installation Requirement Each dc power supply input requires either a 48 Vdc or 60 Vdc power source supplied by three 10 AWG (American Wire Gauge) copper wires. These wires must be terminated with either ring or spade terminals that accept a #6 screw. 3.13.
Chapter 3: 6C110 Setup 5. Press the on/off power switch of each power switch to on. NOTE The 6C205-2 and 6C210-2 sound an audible alarm if there is a polarity reversal. If the alarm sounds, turn off the 48/60 Vdc power source to that power supply. Then reverse the positive and negative leads to the dc input power strip of that power supply. Restore power from the 48/60 Vdc power source. If the alarm sounds again, press the power switch to off and call Cabletron Systems. Refer to Section 1.5.
Removing and Reinstalling the Fan Tray 6C405 Slotted Screws (2) 2016_20 Figure 3-15 Removing the Fan Tray 3.14.2 Reinstalling the Fan Tray To reinstall the fan tray, refer to Figure 3-16 and proceed as follows: 1. Locate the ESD wrist strap shipped with the 6C110. Attach the ESD wrist strap to your wrist and plug the cable from the ESD wrist strap into the ESD grounding receptacle at the upper right corner of the 6C110. 2. Hold the sides of the fan tray. 3.
Chapter 3: 6C110 Setup 4. Slide the fan tray forward until the faceplate of the tray is flush with the face of the 6C110. If there is any strong resistance, remove the fan tray and reinsert it. 5. Once the tray is in place, tighten the slotted screws with a flat blade screwdriver to secure the tray to the 6C110. 6. When the 6C110 is ready to be powered on, observe the LED on the front of the fan tray.
